Don’t hang up if you are over 60 and Mitchell Research calls you to ask if you’ll participate in a survey. The Area
Agency on Aging 1-B is conducting an assessment of senior needs in Livingston County. Callers will say: “Hi, I’m
calling from Mitchell Research, a national polling company. We’re talking to people over the age of 60 about issues facing them and your answers will remain strictly confidential. We are not selling anything.” The survey call will
appear on caller IDs with a Livingston County area code. The caller will not ask for any identifying information, and individual responses are completely confidential.

Calls will begin August 19th and continue through August 24th.

The survey includes questions about seniors’ needs and preferences regarding housing, transportation, health, social support and service needs.  The information will be used by service providers in the county to help plan senior programs and services.

For further information, contact Jim McGuire, director of Research, Policy Development and Advocacy, at the Area Agency on Aging 1-B at 248-761-6480.

This class is specifically designed with the caregiver in mind. Bring a water bottle and towel and get ready to relax and

A variety of local area musicians
take center stage every Friday night throughout the summer on the lawn of the
Historic Howell Courthouse as Concerts at the Courthouse enters its 21^st
season! This perennially popular program is a free series of concerts presented
by the Livingston Arts Council throughout the summer, featuring rock, folk and
blues entertainment at an outdoor family (and pet)-friendly venue. Pack a
blanket or chair, and bring a snack or eat at one of Howell’s many downtown
restaurants before enjoying the evening’s entertainment!

This
year’s series concludes with the return of fan favorites Toppermost, Michigan’s MOST popular Beatles tribute band. They
are an authentic Beatles tribute that prides themselves on recreating the
energy and youthfulness of the legendary foursome, including five sets of
costumes used throughout the show reflecting the band’s evolution throughout
their career. In the words of band member Tom Diab, “We don’t just stand at the
microphone, we dance around and joke with each other just like the lads did.
Our shows are spontaneous, infectious, funny and great for all ages! We are
also sincere Beatles fans and have loved the Beatles our entire lives.”

Concerts at the Courthouse runs
every Friday night from June 28^th – August 23^rd. In the
event of inclement weather, concerts may be cancelled – listen to WHMI 93.5 for
updates or visit the Livingston Arts Council Facebook page. No alcoholic
beverages are permitted.

With its mini-festival atmosphere, the popular Howell’s Sunday Farmers’ Market is open 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Sunday May 6 through Oct. 28 in the heart of downtown Howell.

The market showcases nearly 100 local growers, agricultural producers, artisans and crafts-people.

The market will be relocated a bit this year as the City of Howell will be reconstructing State Street for most of the season. The city has offered to extend the market farther down Clinton Street, and Livingston County has offered use of the Annex parking lot which is on the opposite side of the courthouse, giving the market some Grand River Avenue frontage.

This one of a kind,
inclusive, family friendly event will take place on Sunday, August 25th 2019.
This all paved course starts at Kreeger Elementary School (430 N Hibbard St,
Fowlerville, Michigan 48836) and winds its way around the Fowlerville Schools
campus. Profits to benefit Torch 180.

What makes this a unique event? Here are a few things that set this event apart and are making it an EXPERIENCE you won’t forget:

Open to all ages and fitness levels including: Runners, Walkers, Riders and Rollers alike. Run, jog, walk, wheelchairs (electric and manual) strollers, wagons, rollerblades – all welcome and encouraged to sign up. No bikes this year.

Superheroes from The League Of Enchantment will be there to save the day, photo ops, and fly around the course with you.

The Torch food truck will be serving up freshly made doughnuts and
other snacks.

Family friendly with and various booths filled with prizes and activities for all ages sponsored by local businesses.

Special kids pricing – making this affordable for entire families.

Proceeds from 5K help cover construction costs of the new Torch 180 building. Torch 180 exists to offer culinary training, soft skills training and employability training to adults with disabilities. Once the construction on the building is done, a state of the art classroom, kitchen, coffee shop and maker space will be open to the public.

Dress in your most exciting attire and be ready for fun! The event will conclude with live music, food, and fun. Even if you don’t want to sign up for the race, you are encouraged to come out and join in the other festivities (donations appreciated).
